This is my first Drake & Josh fanfiction I ever wrote. It's posted on my site, but I thought I'd put it here as well. This story is completely written but not completely posted. In fact, I've already written up a sequel, which I will post when I finish posting this.

I don't own any of the Drake & Josh characters. I did create some characters for this fanfiction though. The song "Insensitive" is sung by Jann Arden and written by Anne Loree. No copyright infringements are intended.

The end of chapter six was halfway through. I'm so glad that everything works now. I'm glad you guys like the story too. I'll try to get the rest of it up today. It's been a few days, and Drake is pretty upset. Who can blame him? He didn't really do anything. What's he going to do now?


"Drake?" Sam asked, touching his shoulder gently. Drake jumped, he had been sitting alone at the Premiere, wallowing in self pity as he normally did after school these days, completely oblivious to the world around him. Especially since Cassandra was now dating someone else.

"Hi Sam," he said.

"Look Drake, c'mon. I'm sorry about you and Cassandra, but don't you think you should move on? It's been a month. I happen to know there's a lot of girls interested in dating Drake Parker. Especially one."

"Oh yeah?" said Drake. At the moment the only girl Drake could think of was Cassandra. He supposed Sam was right though. After all, Cassandra was seeing another guy. She was done with Drake. He had to face it. "Okay Sam, let's go out again."

"Oh, Drake, that's so great!"

"Yeah," he said unenthusiastically.


Two weeks later Drake was still dating Sam. He was actually starting to like her. He kept Cassandra at the back of his mind though.

"Oh Drake," started Sam. "Guess what? My uncle works at the arena where Zero Gravity is playing in two weeks. He got me tickets to the show. I know you love them, so I was sure you wanted to go."

Drake thought a minute. He was supposed to go with Cassandra. He wanted to get over her though.

"Sure, Sam, I'd love to go."


Drake looked at the phone and felt his hand shake as he reached for it. This was the hard part, telling Cassandra he was going to the concert with the girl he was currently dating and not her. He slowly dialed her number. The first ring sounded. He felt his heart pound. A second ring. Maybe this was a bad idea. A third ring. He should probably tell Sam he already had plans. The fourth ring. He should probably hang up right...

"Hello," came Cassandra's voice over the phone.

"Hi," said Drake. His mouth felt dry. He felt terrible. "Listen, Cassandra. You know the Zero Gravity concert? What if I went with someone else?" He was regretting every minute of this.

"Who?" asked Cassandra.

"Well," he said, licking his lips. "Uh, Sam."

"Oh, I see. I suppose so. You are dating her after all. Don't want anyone to think you're cheating on her would you?" There was a bit of anger in her voice. "Go ahead Drake."

"Okay," he said. "Bye."

"Bye," she said.

Drake felt as though a weight had been lifted off his shoulders. He knew Cassandra was angry though.


Cassandra slammed the phone back down. She should have expected this. What an insensitive jerk.
"Cassandra," said Drake, approaching her locker. "Are you sure you're okay with me going with Sam to the concert?"

"Yes," she said. "I guess it's better. She might really think you were cheating. I couldn't do that to someone, even if it had been done to me."

Drake wanted to say something but didn't know what. Cassandra turned back around quickly and Drake left. Cassandra felt a tear slip down her cheek. She quickly brushed it away and headed toward her world history class.


Drake was upset with himself. He was ruining his relationship with a good friend. He decided to focus on his relationship with Sam. That would probably be for the best.

"Hey brotha," said Josh, happily walking into the guys' bedroom.

Drake didn't respond. He was busy, trying to think about Sam. You know what, he liked Sam. He pushed Cassandra out of his mind, or so he thought.

"What's up Josh?" Drake asked.

"Big test tomorrow, I've got a long night of studying ahead of me, so if you're going to play your guitar, would you mind doing it elsewhere?"

"Huh? Oh yeah. I have rehearsal in twenty minutes anyway. I'll see you later, okay?" Drake grabbed his guitar and left the room.

Why is Drake acting so odd, thought Josh. I wish I could figure him out, but he doesn't like to talk about stuff much with me, especially girls. I assume girls are his problem too. Ever since Josh found out Drake had broken up with Cassandra, he hadn't had the heart to say, "I told you so." Mainly because Josh was a better guy than that. It really bothered him to see Drake so down.
